Who are you in the West


Brazenly I spoke to God
about the weather inclement
suffering the West’s burst
upon my shore
where life pleasant.

And even now
banging, bashing,
tampering and murder –
torturous to my eyes
and hearing worse …
shouting, banging, complaining,
blasphemous and raping.

What ever next …
I am but four and no more
and this, well this,
has hurt more than I,
at this stage of my life
know no reason or can express.

******

The battlements are down
my heart swollen, lost and torn.

Who are you in the West …
no heart and soul,
no decency,
no respect
for your own – humanity?
